3/11:New York Yankees infielder Brandon Drury has made changes to his approach and is looking for a breakout season in 2018, according to Brandon Kuty of NJ.com. In 2017, he hit 48.8 of his balls on the ground, something that Yankees hitting coach Marcus Thames would like to see Drury hit more fly balls. "He's just trying get himself into a position where he can pull the ball into the air a little bit more," the Yankees' primary hitting coach said. "Just from watching his video and talking with him, I'm still getting to know him. I think it's going to help him because he's got a lot of tools. Me and him working on that is going to help him. He's trying to make sure he's getting his hands through to get this ball in the air and so far, in his work and stuff, it's been really good." Drury hit 13 home runs and 37 doubles for the Diamondbacks last season, but Thames thinks that a change in approach could see 10-15 of those double turn into home runs. If Drury is able to hit 25 or so home runs, he would be a very impressive fantasy threat with 2B/3B eligibility.--Chris Zolli - RotoBallerSource: NJ.com
